Subject: Re: [xsl] limit a string to a certain word count From: "Matthew Pease" <mpease@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue, 13 Mar 2007 17:21:23 -0700 |
How might I make an xsl function for this & how would I call it? Anyone care to help?
Thanks -- Matt
You mean, truncate it to a certain number of words?
In XSLT 2.0, that's
tokenize($in, '\W')[position() = 1 to $n]
where $in is your input string and $n is the number of words.
It's a fair bit harder in XSLT 1.0 (most things are).
